Winning Isn't Everything
WINNING ISN'T EVERYTHING by Dr. Reinhold Llerena
What happens when a quirky family thinks they’ve hit the jackpot? Winning Isn’t Everything is a sharp, laugh-out-loud comedy about one unforgettable evening in the life of Ernie, a lovable curmudgeon with a knack for chaos, and his eccentric family.
As tensions rise over a supposedly winning lottery ticket, secrets are spilled, dreams are shared, and a bizarrely magical neighbor keeps everyone guessing. Will the family tear each other apart—or come together when it matters most?
Packed with witty dialogue, heartwarming twists, and characters you’ll love to root for (and laugh at!), this staged reading promises an evening of big laughs and even bigger surprises. Don’t miss this delightfully hilarious look at what really makes a family rich!
Presented by Parker Players Theater co. as part of their play reading festival. Each night will shine a spotlight on a different playwright, presenting a directed and rehearsed reading of their play.
